Note: there is a thermal pad included, as you can see on the picture. The case can get a bit warm after a few hours of normal use, but it’s OK, that’s how it works. The aluminum lid touches the Raspberry Pi CPU and transfers the heat outside the case. In fact, the top of the case is a heat sink in itself. There is no fan, no heat sinks that you stick on the CPU, and it’s doesn’t look like a traditional passive case. Yes, they are great with customer satisfaction 🙂 Cooling systemĪs I mentioned in introduction, the Flirc Case includes a pretty innovative cooling system.

Also, I use it with an Ethernet cable and my favorite Bluetooth keyboard. I use it almost every day, mainly to test operating systems and software, not so much with accessories and no external circuits. What is my experience with it? I think I have rarely removed my Pi 4 from this case in the past 6 months, and I never switched to another case. This is the theory you can see on their presentation page, let’s see now how it works in real life, and what you need to know before trying it.

This case is sold as the perfect fit for a media center usage, but also with a way to access GPIO pins and the SD card slot. The Flirc Case is made of aluminum, and brings a beautiful look to your Raspberry Pi, as well as an innovative solution for cooling it. So, today I will share with you my honest review about this interesting case for Raspberry Pi. I bought the Flirc Case in May 2020 (9 months ago), and I have used it for the most part. Run hot scripts, launch applications, all with a single remote control button.Finding the best case for a Raspberry Pi is not so easy, the perfect one for everything doesn’t really exist, and we all have different uses for our Pi. Advanced Configurationīecause Flirc acts as a keyboard, our GUI allows you to pair any remote control button with any keyboard key for advanced functionality. Your paired remote configuration is saved on your device but you can back it up or share it with our Cross platform applications. As long as your motherboard supports wake on USB, you’re clicks away. Pair the suspend and wake up key to any remote control button for complete control of your media center. Our command line application can do everything the GUI can do.
